Create dropdownlist choices from AD group or process Participant group members

1

I am wanting to create a dropdown with choices from a Participant group or our AD groups we assign to that participant group (to allow one participant to assign action steps to a specific person in another participant group). I’m still searching the documentation and forum for examples but have not found anything yet. Is this something I should do by querying in code-behind or a SQL stored procedure?

Thanks,

James

Hello James,

You can write SQL query directly in dropdown list

In our case, we set members in this list, which are in a participant group.

DECLARE @IdProcess int

SET @IdProcess = (SELECT TOP 1 ID_PROCESS FROM WFPROCESS
				WHERE NAME = 'PROCESS_NAME'
				ORDER BY ID_PROCESS DESC)

SELECT '' AS id, '- Sélectionner une personne ...' AS value
UNION
SELECT dbo.USERS.USERNAME as id,dbo.USERS.LASTNAME + ' ' + dbo.USERS.FIRSTNAME as value 
FROM dbo.WFPROCESS
INNER JOIN dbo.WFPARTICIPANT ON dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.ID_PROCESS = dbo.WFPROCESS.ID_PROCESS
INNER JOIN dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO ON dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO.ID_PARTICIPANT = dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.ID_PARTICIPANT				
INNER JOIN dbo.GROUPS ON dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO.ID_GROUP = dbo.GROUPS.ID_GROUP
INNER JOIN dbo.USERS_GROUPS ON dbo.USERS_GROUPS.ID_GROUP = dbo.GROUPS.ID_GROUP
INNER JOIN dbo.USERS ON dbo.USERS.ID_USER = dbo.USERS_GROUPS.ID_USER
WHERE        (dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.ID_PROCESS = @IdProcess) AND (dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.NAME = 'PARTICIPANT_NAME') AND dbo.USERS.ACTIVE = 'Y'
UNION
SELECT        dbo.USERS.USERNAME as id,dbo.USERS.LASTNAME + ' ' + dbo.USERS.FIRSTNAME as value 
FROM            dbo.USERS INNER JOIN
                         dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO ON dbo.USERS.ID_USER = dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO.ID_USER INNER JOIN
                         dbo.WFPARTICIPANT ON dbo.WFPARTICIPANT_MAPTO.ID_PARTICIPANT = dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.ID_PARTICIPANT
WHERE        (dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.ID_PROCESS = @IdProcess) AND (dbo.WFPARTICIPANT.NAME = 'PARTICIPANT_NAME') AND dbo.USERS.ACTIVE = 'Y' 
ORDER BY value

You need to replace “PROCESS_NAME” and “PARTICIPANT_NAME’”.

After, we use “id” to affect action automatically
